Allow Homeowners to Choose Clean Energy Over Fossil Fuels in Their Homes

Utilities in California routinely replace thousands of aging gas service lines each year. New gas lines have a 50-60 year expected life – long past the state’s 2045 zero-emissions target. Such investments create costly stranded assets and represent a missed opportunity to electrify homes, especially for low- and middle-income households. To address this problem, legislators have introduced AB 2313, which would provide an electrification alternative to homeowners that have aging gas lines. Under the bill, homeowners would be able to use funds that would have gone to gas-line replacements to pay for home electrification upgrades (heat pumps, electric panel upgrades, etc.) instead.

Ask Your Legislators to Promote The Transition to Affordable Clean Energy

Ask your representatives to support AB 2313 to provide homeowners with an electrification alternative to gas service line replacements. We don’t want to miss the opportunity to speed up clean electrification, lower costs, and protect our climate.
